Hello,I'm new to long touring and will be doing the Trans Am next year.I have heard some mixed news on using Chamoix cream and wondered what regular tourers think,is it worth using and if so how much do you need to use?

I am new to cycle touring and will be doing the above trail starting in June 2013 west to east,with my 21 year old son..I am looking for as many tips as possible.Anything to do with gear,or things I should know about America,ie where am I permitted to camp,what sort of tip should I give in a bar etc.Best way to get to the start and many more.
